Huh? I am a woman. What do you mean "we need to be on the map"? I look around and I see professional, successful women accomplishing all kinds of things. I don't look to any presidential candidate to put women on the map. We're on the map. I also don't need the president to be one gender over another to feel "heard."
It's not the president who allows women to be heard. It's the president who is suppose to hear the people -- including women.
Arguing some sense of entitlement to the presidency or "turn" is only going to turn people away from HRC, so if you really want her to win, then I would caution you against doing that.

I don't dislike HRC, but the more I hear about how I'm supposed to vote for her because I'm a woman and I'd be stupid to consider Bernie is really turning me away.

Pretty much this.
Takes a constitutional amendment to fix campaign financing so that's not happening anytime soon.
Seriously, I feel like Bernie supporters have forgotten that we have a constitution. The president doesn't get a magic wand at inauguration that he can wave to fix everything? Y'all understand how that works, yes? Have you been around for the past 7 years?
And how will Hillary be better?

Oh my. Unless women's interests are corporate interests, I'm not buying this as an argument to vote Hillary over Sanders. She took the performance enhancing drugs just like everyone else did in politics, and no one thought for a minute that a real life politician would show up to challenge her and "the establishment" on this point. Because there were only a handful of people who could do it with any level of sincerity or integrity. Just about EVERYONE ELSE sold out.
Oops, Bernie announced. His pee is clean. Plus he has progressive bona-fides.
This isn't even English.

I'm a woman, and I want to be heard, and I am sick and tired of money making political decisions in our country, from gun control, prison reform, health care, etc.
I will use my voice/vote in support of Bernie.
If you care about Gun control. You have the wrong candidate.
No one can fight gun control until (a) the American electorate wants to take bold action and/or (b) money is out of politics. It's all money. Period.
